Uh oh... that's not doubt creeping into your mind, is it pal?

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 05-29-14, 10:20 PM

Excellent point seto. Now you making me feel ashamed for not taking every home in this series at alt... its not too late for fame 6 I believe

**ChiLLx** · 05-29-14, 10:30 PM

**gottimhimmel** · 05-29-14, 10:30 PM

No that's just me venting and bitching like I always do

To be fair I am coming off of a really bad run (well most of that run was one day smh), I need wins badly so every play I miss out on or every bet I lose makes me go ballistic these days.

Still feel about the same as I did yesterday about tomorrow's game. Probably going about the same as tonight, 5-6 units.

**Pauulzcappin** · 05-29-14, 10:40 PM

spurs ran them out of the gym as expected. thunder still the play on game 6 though.

**Pauulzcappin** · 05-29-14, 10:43 PM

fukking miami ml at -340 though. that sucks donkey balls.

**KRIT** · 05-29-14, 10:44 PM

^^^^Paullz parlay em together. OKC ML + Heat ML. Then you don't have to lay much juice.

You're probably right about tomorrow night. I'm just not committing to either side yet. Hoping to get a better feel tomorrow.

that's a pretty good idea, this should hit regardless.

**Seto** · 05-30-14, 08:51 AM

Heat-7 -120 (pinnacle) (risking 6x to win 5x)
Heat-14 +230 (bet365) (risking 1x to win 2.3x)

I never ever buy points but I'm just really mad at missing out on -7 so yeah. It's a retarded move in theory and even more so since I expect a 15+ pt blowout but I'm just getting pissed off over everything these days so I'm trying to spare myself some more cursing and shit juuust in case.

**Pauulzcappin** · 05-30-14, 09:08 AM

bro do you really think they are gonna win by 15?

They can definetly win by DD but isn't 15 a bit of a stretch?

**unitedlad** · 05-30-14, 10:38 AM

C'mon Paul. Do Seto's Alt spread bets deserve this reaction every time?

Obviously there's a chance Pacers get blown out. And the bookmakers obviously don't think it to be too ridiculous of a notion if they are pricing it at +230

Seto has brilliant success rate with big alt spreads.

Everytime? It's probably the first time I question them

I definetly see the heat blowing them out but it's an elimination game for the pacers nonetheless.

with that said lebron played the worst game of his career on playoffs and they still almost won so yeah...

**unitedlad** · 05-30-14, 11:06 AM

I don't mean by you personally. But it seems like every time he bets on a team to win by double digits someone comes in what the whole "that's ridiculous" thing.

ive been buying points in the playoffs which i dont do during the regular season...
its the end of the season, and im betting 2u minimum now, so just going for the win extra hard..

"long term" buying pts is not something i recommend. but on bigger plays, it makes sense if you missed a move...

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 05-30-14, 04:00 PM

I think indy covers this one. Heat Ml and indy spread for eme

i almost took -20.5 as well. i would have at +700, +500 was a bit weak. these elimination games are blowouts more often than one thinks actually. i mean it doesn't necessarily indicate the game will be close.

yeah pretty much my thoughts. not a fan of it but nothing is set in stone. i saved myself a lot of cash when i took lac ml in game 4 v okc instead of just the soread.

Heat good to me as always. I hope their core stays together because they've made me an unreal amount of cash these last 3 years be it backing them or fading them...

The last games should be fun, 3 championship teams left.

**Seto** · 05-31-14, 10:38 PM

Today: 0-1, -1x

Old OKC future bites the dust. I actually wanted it to lose though I have more on the Spurs to win the ship, didn't post it here (although I've referred to it several times) as it's parlayed with tennis... Which is highly unusual for me.

**Seto** · 06-05-14, 07:53 PM

Heat+3 +106 (pinnacle) (first half) (risking 3x to win 3.18x)
Heat ml +178 (pinnacle) (first half) (risking 1x to win 1.78x)

I still like the Spurs for the series but something bothers me about tonight's game. Gonna start out with this and maybe bet live.

**t-wizzle** · 06-05-14, 07:53 PM

**Seto** · 06-05-14, 09:19 PM

Absolutely mind-numbingly stupid of me. Having futures really makes me do dumb things smh.

At least I put 2 units on Spurs 1H pk -112 at 38-36 so I only lost 2 but really I shouldn't be losing anything here. At least for once I made a good hedge.

**Seto** · 06-05-14, 10:45 PM

Today: 0-2, -4x
Total: 255-307-9, +34x

Decent enough night live which I would've finished up but for that fukking bullshit last 3 by Kawhi that pushed the 4Q over. I had a theory that the heat would make the game go under but more overwhelming proof I should never bet totals except in very rare cases with Bulls unders.

**Seto** · 06-06-14, 12:37 PM

Spurs-4.5 -107 (5dimes) (risking 6.42x to win 6x)

**Pauulzcappin** · 06-06-14, 12:55 PM

Not feeling too safe about the Spurs but my money will be on them.

Lebron might come out on a mission.

**DOM-Ganador** · 06-06-14, 05:01 PM

Seto man, have no idea what you are thinking. I love the Spurs in the series, and hit them 1st game, but love Heat and the points tomorrow.
If the Spurs win, I think its going to be a last minute down to the wire thing.
LBJ is going to get every single call all night long and live at the line.

The points rarely matter in NBA finals games as I said in NoCoin's thread the other day. Only like 1 of the last 20 NBA finals games has had the fave win and dog cover. Plus which 4.5 points is easily covered by late free throws and BS.

I firmly believe in a comfortable Spurs win here. Before the series my favorite game to bet for the series was Spurs game 2 if they won game 1 in any other fashion than a blowout. The Heat could come out with superior urgency and make a decent start but the Spurs will end up prevailing.

**KRIT** · 06-06-14, 06:34 PM

Like Spurs in gm2 as well. Took them this morning, line should go up. Gl to us.

**Pauulzcappin** · 06-07-14, 11:08 AM

there was some money on heat for the series on pinny and the line is back to -4.5

a bit worried here

every time i've let line moves fukk with my mind of late i've lost... just gonna go with my gut here, i'm feeling an easy spurs win by 15+ tbh.

**t-wizzle** · 06-08-14, 01:56 AM
